 What is concept paper? Before going to that, we need to understand the seven steps of a successful protocol to identify the topic, question, and objectives, followed by this one-page concept paper, bearing the dummy tables, then writing a draft protocol, prepare the instruments and the annexures, then we need to submit it to our peers' fix committee for further review. You should not confuse this with lifecycle of a research where we start from the data needs, then research question, then study objectives, then planning the analysis, data collection instruments, then data collection analysis, then drawing conclusions, then formulating recommendations, then inform to the stakeholders, then that will further end up in some more data needs and this cycle continues. And why it is one-page is because we can focus better and also the inhibition in preparing a big protocol will be avoided. Also, it saves the time. Now, what are the components of this one-page concept paper? Background and justification, objectives, methods, expected benefits, key references, and budget.
